1) When launching the emulation I am always prompted to load software from the predefined software lists. I do not have any predefined software installed. This should be configurable.
2) After launching the emulation I can not change any slot devices in the empty multi-pak slots until I select "reset" once.
3) After changing a device, such as installing a SSC pak into slot 1 and resetting again, it works, but if I exit Mame and relaunch it this configuration is lost.
4) Wither I change a slot device or not, exiting the emulation crashes Mame instead of returning you to the system selection menu.

The first 2 sound like UI specific gripes on your end. Not sure how much can change there.
The others, we'll wait for a Dev to respond.

I'm trying hard to duplicate your issues. Can you try with a fresh install without any special .cfg or .ini files and see all of your items still happen?
To my knowledge, there has been work done on coco and has been tested by a few people who know the machine. There may be some changes in usage and syntax as well - I'd suggest you check -listslots output to confirm.

Still awaiting confirmation of #4 (crash which was fixed using FAVORITES in UI). Issues #1 and #2 are more gripes about the UI and #3 can be solved by using -writeconfig, I imagine.

I have accepted #1 as a "design choice" however #2 is not a "gripe" about the UI, the UI does not allow you to change any slot devices until you select reset from the UI menu. Even doing a reset another way is not enough, until you click reset from the slot device menu you can not change any slot devices. As to number #3, you shouldn't comment about what you imagine, I am using -writeconfig, if you had tried reproducing this, you would have realized that. :( #4 is now fixed by the change referred to by NPWoods.
